Once one person starts planting in communal spaces, others often follow suit, as any guerrilla gardener will tell you. The roads around Ryland Road (see previous post) also have planted-up tree pits, and there’s a community garden area too; a sign says that it’s tended by residents. And it’s not made up of boring low maintenance shrubs either – a lot of front gardens don’t look as good as this.
